Allow IPv6 Hosts file resolution when IPv6 unreachable

Prior to crrev.com/c/6297626, when IPv6 is unreachable, Hosts file
resolution could still resolve IPv6 results as long as there are no
IPv4 results for the name or the only IPv4 results are loopback. After
the CL, the special case would only work when there is at least one
IPv4 loopback.

Fix to allow the no-IPv4 case again.

Noteworthy that system and built-in resolution have long differed in
this logic in that system resolution seems to have always required at
least one IPv4 loopback to allow the IPv6 resolution, and we therefore
accidentally made the logic more consistent. But the inconsistent
behavior has been in place for so long that we should go back to that
behavior without a deliberate effort to change things.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure.

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.
